Lost in the Dream

Dreams we all have them. Some dreams can be simple and some will have steps or stages. The best part about striving to fulfill your dreams is that your vision can change and morph into something even better… In a short time you could go from one end of the dream spectrum to the complete other side. For instance the world has changed. At one point everyone wants to keep up with the Jones’s. Now less is more!

Living the Dream” A statement that is usually said with a smile. What happens when you are lost in said dream and not really living in it. I don’t want to “live the dream” I just don’t want to live any hellish nightmares. Really a nightmare can only happen in the mind. This is because you allow it to happen to yourself. Yes you are the only one responsible for your emotions, thoughts and reactions. But I can’t just shut everything off like I am flipping a switch. It’s not that easy.

Well who ever said it was easy?

Once you hand over your dreams or responsibilities of yourself to the world – hang on tight.

Like my Pappy always said “If you’re gonna be stupid, you better be tough”

What if you are in a really bad situation you say… By realizing my reactions and inner reality are controlled by myself any situation could be heaven or hell. That is how I have made it this far. A lot of situations I have been in, if I didn’t react with a laugh I would still be crying. I am sure that most people have been forced to experience laughing at the tragic shattering of dreams/reality. Sometimes life can be hard.

This is a daily reminder to myself. I do have to ask – Are you living your dream? Do you really want to do this? Partake in these feelings? Do I need to reevaluate my life my goals and desires? It is an ongoing mission to morph my dreams. I find that holding on to core values and dreams are not always as important as creating new ones.

Right now I am working on each moment. Reminding myself gently about my personal responsibility of my reactions to each situation. Tomorrow the world might be completely different but how this would effect me, is up to me.
